Promising review: "I was skeptical when first buying this, because I didn't know if it was going to work or not. I get a few giant, deep, unpoppable and PAINFUL pimples every week. I simply just cleaned my face, put them on before bed and woke up to all the puss being inside the patch, and the pimple being nothing but a red mark on my face!!! No scabs, no pain and no scarring." – Amazon Customer

2.A facial spray can help chill out sensitive combination skin when the weather changes.

Promising review: "I have combination skin. During the summer, it gets oily very fast and during the winter it is extremely dull and dry looking. My skin is sensitive and most of the time has a pinkish red color to it when it is dry and irritated. However, after using this spray, my skin is much healthier looking and has a dewy, fresh look. It even helped calm down the redness. I haven't had this for a full week and I'm head over heels in love and can't wait to order more of this stuff. Holy grail in my skincare routine now!" –Haley O.

Promising review: “I bought this product about a month ago and I use it at least once a day, sometimes twice. I started noticing a difference in my skin within a week! For the record, I have terrible skin. It’s red, blotchy, uneven, and on top of that I would get terrible breakouts. I chose to post some before-and-after pictures because even though my skin is still not perfect this product has helped A LOT! It helped reduce the redness of my breakouts within a few days of using it, and I’m convinced that it has also helped prevent more breakouts. This past month I’ve only had about two bad pimples (which is great for me since I used to get a new pimple every couple of days) but other than that my face has been doing great! The top two photos were taken the day I got the product, and the bottom two photos are the results after about a month of using the product!” —Amazon Customer

Our colleagues in the US really rate this one from Amazon, but if you're in the UK, the Body Shop's Vitamin C range is well-priced and varied.

"Vitamin C is pretty key when it comes to getting rid of hyper-pigmentation and this moisturiser is full of the stuff. This cream is really light, a little too light if you have really dry skin, but it is unbelievably good at getting rid of dark spots. You will see a glow within days of using it. Patricia Bright includes it in her getting rid of hyper-pigmentation routine." – Tolani Shoneye

5.A simple skincare routine for eczema should definitely include sunscreen.

BuzzFeed/Shea Moisture/Biossance

"The fact that I actually have a skin routine is fantastic considering I have eczema and skin allergies. I’ve never really been able to use most skin care products. But now there are so many amazing sensitive skin products.

Promising review: "I have had adult acne which has been the most nightmarish experience for decades now and this has really helped. Up until I found this I had been using all the 'no bumps' alcohol lotions for shavers because it was the best thing for me although it dries out the skin so I would clear up my spots somewhat but have dry patches that showed when I wore makeup. This didn't do that and I have had about a 70% reduction in my skin problems. I hope that using it longer will up that percentage but when you consider I've only just started on it I am really really grateful and even that has been life-changing for someone who has the problems I do." – Caroline

"Retinol can help skin turnover cells. It's like over-the-counter chemical peel in a sense that it gets the skin to renew. It can help with sunspots, but in terms of wrinkles it doesn't do that much. Also, be aware: for some people it can be drying." – Dr. Lindsey Bordone, dermatologist at ColumbiaDoctors Midtown

Promising review: "I have been using metaderm for more than 6 months and it helps my severe psoriasis so much. I have tried the hyper moisturizing cream and my skin stayed moisturized so much longer. Metaderm is a great product for anyone with psoriasis or verb just dry skin!" – Kristin

9.A product like Bio-Oil is a lifesaver for helping with stretch marks and scars.

Promising review: "I apply a good layer before going to bed and it gives me that 'good-night’s-sleep glow' even if I only slept a few hours! It’s primarily meant to target pregnancy stretch marks, but it can also be used for dry skin, uneven tone, and scarring. Best kept skin regimen secret yet!" —biancan489198221

Promising review: "This cream changed my life!!! I had been suffering with severe hormonal acne after weaning my baby and it just wouldn’t go away! After a week of this miracle cream, my face cleared up significantly! It’s mild and absorbs quickly. Never irritated my skin and leaves your skin nice and soft, perfect to wear under make up. I wear it in place of a moisturizer and won’t switch to anything else!"—Tanner Steveson

Promising review: "This is the miracle cure for sunburn. The pain is usually gone after about three or four applications, and I don't have any peeling whatsoever after using this! Plus, all the redness is usually gone after one night. You could actually call in sick to work to do outdoor activities and no one would be the wiser, because you wouldn't show up with a red face the next day!" —cusimano

12.Tend Skin is a genius treatment for ingrown hairs – with proven results.

Promising review: "This stuff is nothing short of life changing. I have always struggled with ingrown hairs and unsightly razor bumps, meaning that I could only really shave my bikini line once in a blue moon only for my skin to immediately erupt a day later. After using this, I could honestly probably shave every day with little to no irritation if I wanted to. Hoping it also helps with some long standing scars that I have from previous ingrown hairs, but for now I am simply over the moon that I can at last remove my hair without and discomfort or embarrassing marks!" – Dr M

"It freakin works! And it works GOOD! I had razor bumps on the back of my head for years since high school. And people would tell me "the back of your head looks like meatloaf" and all types of other rude hateful comments. Then 1 day I was the barbershop and 1 of the barbers heard my asking about how to get rid of those bumps on the back of my head. Which is when he told me about Tend Skin.So im lazy and didnt feel like looking for it at Walmart or a beauty supply store etc. Then I got on Amazon and found it! Its a little pricey but it works." – Xavier

13.A glycolic peel will help to reduce large patches of redness and uneven skin.

Promising review: "I had a little problem with dermatillomania marks/scars, ingrown hairs and rough red bumps on my legs that I have been embarrassed of since my early teens and have refused to wear outfits that show my bare legs because of all the marks. I am totally amazed by this stuff! My leg scars have cleared so well (the big deeper ones are still there but faint and i could easily hide them with concealer if I wanted to) the red bumps 'chicken skin' has gone for the first time in about 15 years and the ingrown hairs don't look as angry and I think are going. I also used it on small dermatillomania scars/marks on my chest and shoulders which are now gone.

"For anyone wanting an idea of how long it took to see results - I used the pads mentioned before for about a week or so on my leg scars out of curiosity after my face cleared up but wasn't seeing too much difference and then bought this which I have had for 1 week! I use it once a day after a shower. " –Amazon Customer

Promising review: "I have combination skin as well as rosacea, and still get pimples along my jawline. It's a lot to deal with. I started out with a sample of the Frxxxtion stick, and it worked so well that I bought the full-size product. It's gentle enough for daily use (even with rosacea), and has achieved some serious progress in warding off my blemishes. But my favorite part is that my skin is the softest and smoothest it's ever been. I will go out of my way to keep this product on hand."—emilyr31
